February Class History February classes have lost their novelty and youth and are quite grown up and satisfied with their newly acquired prestige and power. This is the fifth mid-year class to be graduated from Central. For the first time in the history of the school it was given the honor of having four com- ment speakers. It was also new to have a theme with its four phases worked out by the Speakers. The class made its social debut by means of a Fall party, October 18 at the Schluraff cottage. They first came into the Central limelight through their clever class day with its printed programs. The final event of the season was the Senior Banquet held Wednesday, January 29 at Hunter’s Lodge. Like the June Class, it did everything to be worthy of the honor of being the last class to graduate from Central. 22
